Amalfi Coast Villas, Apartments and Vacation Rentals For Rent

Surrounded by dramatic cliffs, the town of Amalfi lies on the sea at the mouth of the Valle dei Mulini, a deep gorge. The town’s picturesque white houses cascade down the hillside and are connected by alleys festooned with bougainvillea and steep stairways.

At the center of town lies iconic Chiesa di S. Andrea, with its sweeping 60-step staircase and Arab-Norman bell tower. Piazza del Duomo is the town’s hub, dotted with sidewalk cafés and elegant shops. A maritime republic the likes of Pisa, Venice and Genoa since the 9th century, Amalfi remains a busy hub, plying regular routes to Capri, Sorrento and Naples. At 40 minutes from Sorrento and 40 minutes from Salerno, this area works well as a central base for day trips to the east or west.

Museo della Carta—an Amalfi institution devoted to handmade paper, for which the town is famous.

Local lemons—whether it’s in a glass of artisan limoncello, a pastry, or fresh pasta. In Amalfi, lemons are everywhere!

Grotta dello Smeraldo (Emerald Grotto), located on the bay in nearby Conca dei Marini. It’s a remarkable sea cave; visit in the early afternoon for the best possible light. Boats depart from Amalfi.
